Quick question: how hard is the maths in enginnering at university?

Currently studying year 12 and doing
- General maths (3/100)
- Engineering (1/11).
- Adv English (18/90)
- Pe (10/86)
- IPT (1/21)
- 1 Unit Re (6/184)

Would i be able to tackle the mathematical side of engineering at uni?

Thanks.

you will EXCRUCIATINGLY struggle. but not impossible.

i think you will find it difficult because you will not have done any calculus or difficult trigonometry.

however if you work really hard, i'm sure you could pull it off.

instead of taking the first engineering maths course, perhaps think about taking an easier one first to catch up on the stuff you missed in high school (i know you can do this at unsw)

4 on the difficulty meter

4 on the difficulty meter

That's only if you have a background in calculus/vectors

Mathematics gets quite complex, however as an engineer theres no way to avoid it.

general maths. lol

general maths. lol

i fkn reckon.
lololol.

 

[tommykins]

don't quite get why gen math/no math kids randomly want to do engineering?

since there are enough people filling you with false hope, you might pass the maths courses but the engineering subjects you will fail and fail hard!

 

[hazza9]

Hmmm... thanks for all your replies - sounds like the maths is hard and will be near impossible with no 'real' maths or physics under my belt.

I advise you to do bridging courses.

Look, it will be tough but its not unachievable.

Work very very hard and you will be fine.

Maybe even hire a tutor ?

Yep, you should do some idiot course, like business or something:rofl:

Ahahahahahahah +rep, business subjects for the less capable!

Engineering maths is fucked up, esp. mechanical shit.

EDIT: I'm a maths major and I failed Mech subjects.

wait, theres maths in engineering?

i thought it just involved mines and huge salaries!?

You have virtually no chance unless you work really hard and cover most of the 4unit course.

 

[boris]

Lol thanks 09er.

Id say that with a bit of work you will do well with just good marks in 2 unit.
